In cities like New York and Los Angeles, dedicated spaces that once buzzed with foot traffic and formal openings are now struggling with rising rents and changing expectations,\u201d it reads. \u201cThe old model, where a gallery does everything for its artists, feels like it\u2019s falling apart.\u201d Collectors are reportedly increasingly focusing on\u00a0\u201cred-chip\u201d\u00a0artists\u2014a rising group whose appeal is driven more by viral buzz and cultural relevance than by traditional institutional backing. These artists are gaining traction for two key reasons: their work tends to be more accessible and affordable, and it offers fresh, diverse cultural viewpoints that resonate with a global audience. But,\u00a0Hypebeastnotes, \u201cArt isn\u2019t disappearing. It\u2019s just moving, becoming more accessible and less tied to one physical location.\u201d How much the model changes will dictate how successful galleries remain,\u00a0Hypebeast\u00a0proposes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe Digest<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m     \">\n\tA\u00a0Guardian\u00a0reporter who was almost murdered finds comfort in the Renaissance influences in\u00a0Jenny Saville\u2019s work, currently on show at the\u00a0National Portrait Gallery.

Such an initiative might be brought to mind while viewing the show \u201cFor Children: Art Stories since 1968\u201d at the\u00a0Haus der Kunst\u00a0in Munich, which explores play in art over the past 60 years. At the show, visitors, both young and old, are invited to engage physically and emotionally with the works. Picking up where KEKS left off, there are works such as\u00a0Rivane\u00a0Neuenschwander\u2019s embroidered capes, based on children\u2019s fears, which merge vulnerability with empowerment. The exhibition suggests that childhood itself is a profound form of artistic inquiry, and that adults can still tap into it.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Headlines POE SPEAKS.\u00a0Artnet News\u00a0recently\u00a0interviewed\u00a0ex-staffers and artists from\u00a0Tim Blum\u2019s now-closed gallery, who said they were blindsided by the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":78990,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[76,354,355,28690,49,48,356,75,47901,47902],"class_list":["post-78989","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arts-and-design","tag-arts","tag-arts-and-design","tag-artsanddesign","tag-blum-poe","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-design","tag-entertainment","tag-helen-mcnicoll","tag-jeff-poe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78989","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78989"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78989\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78990"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78989"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78989"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78989"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
